Having problems with your Toshiba Satellite Pro L300 Notebook ?

Can i hook-up my toshiba L300D to a television and how would i do it?

Answers :

There should be a vga output its normaly black or blue on the side or back of your laptop its the cable that a monitor would plug into you can plug that into a vga input on most newer tv's or your laptop may have an S VIDEO out put which looks like a mouse or keyboard port and is usually yellow check your owners manual to see if you have these or look it up online then you just have to buy the proper cable to connect it I use an S video cable that converts to Audio video cables and plug it into my tv that way so im sure you can find a way to do it you may need some type of adapter once you know what your tv and what your laptop has for connections the only real reason i would recomend doing it is for watching movies from the laptop because the quality of the picture sucks for web surfing but is awesome for video in my experiances

When wireless switch is flipped on Toshiba laptop Satellite A105-S2716 - the screen goes black and blinks repeatedly. I thought my screen was going bad but as soon as I flip the wireless switch to 'off' and hook into my ether-net connector (land line versus wireless) the screen is fine. I called Toshiba and they said they have no idea and want me to bring in for service. Would like to avoid that as I need my laptop everyday. Anyone know what the problem could be with my wireless?

This could be a connection problem with the wireless antenna, which is interfering with the monitor, as most laptops have a high effeciency antenna which is fitted in the screen surround, so i would send to a qualified repairer to check it out. ...
